Robot mower navigation
The navigation technologies behind every mower in our catalog, with the number of models, brands and prices for each system.
Navigation systems compared
| System | Setup | Accuracy | Best for | Mowers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LiDAR navigation | No wire, usually no base station; the mower maps the garden itself (some models also use network RTK). | Centimetre-level, independent of sky view | Gardens with trees, buildings and narrow passages | 20 |
| Husqvarna EPOS | Virtual boundaries drawn in the Automower Connect app; reference station or Husqvarna Cloud correction depending on model. | Centimetre-level (RTK-based) | Husqvarna owners who want wire-free installation | 4 |
| RTK + vision | Map the lawn in the app by driving the edge; reference antenna or network RTK. | Centimetre-level in open areas, vision assists in weak-signal zones | Most open and semi-open gardens | 33 |
| RTK-GNSS | Reference antenna or network RTK; boundaries mapped in the app. | Centimetre-level with good sky view | Open lawns without large trees | 8 |
| Vision (camera) navigation | Place on the lawn and start; the mower learns the edges with its cameras. | Depends on light and lawn edge contrast | Small to mid-size lawns with clear edges | 2 |
